AutoCAD Civil 3D :: No Feature Lines In Offset Corridor
Feb 19, 2012No feature lines in offset corridor
View 3 RepliesNo feature lines in offset corridor
View 3 RepliesI have reason stumbled across the offset assembly functionality of corridors, and for the most part, I have been quite impressed. One thing that has come up that is odd to me that when I create a surface from the corridor using feature lines, the feature lines that are created by the offset assembly are not added to the corridor surface, even though they are visible and can be selected. When I create the corridor using links, everything is fine and the surface looks great. I can work using the links, but the more curious part of my nature is a bit tortured not knowing why this is happening.
On a related note, any strong preferences/reasons for using links vs. feature lines, or vice versa?

I am using the Mill&Overlay sub set to overlay an semetrical road and a crown offset of zero. I one file the crown point feature line has gaps in it and in another file it zig zags along the road.
I forgot to mention that the triangles and the cross section look as expected. trouble is I want the crown profile

I have a road corridor with feature lines connecting the road edges (cyan), ditchline (dark green), daylight_cut (yellow), daylight_fill (green) and daylight (white). At certain random locations along this corridor I am getting feature lines which span from one station to another, ignoring all of the corridor sections in between. The image below shows a daylight_fill line spanning over 60m, even though there is a daylight line through this region.
In this area a ditch line and a daylight_cut start at 4+110, skip over the next cut section at 4+120 and jump over a hundred meters to the next piece of ditch at 4+280..This corridor builds clean - no error messages reported.
Is this the only way to extract feature lines from a corridor i.e. selecting each one - it gets a bit tedious.
Is there any method to select a corridor and extract all the feature lines that are set to display?? I think third party software (Sincpac?) can do this but this is not an option for me and I am not well versed enough in .NET to write something to achieve this myself.
How do I make my corridor feature lines to change color? I want daylight cut to be red and daylight fill to be green.I've checked under "Toolspace/Settings/General/Multipurpose styles/Feature line styles/Corridor daylight line - Cut" but it doesn't work.

when I look at it in 3d it looks ok but the plan view the jumped lines show up.
How do i get the feature lines in my corridor to change their style based on the code set style selected?Whats the point of defining featureline styles in the code set style if they don't change in the corridor? They only get used when you first create the corridor?
Is there something I am missing or is this the intended workflow?
I am building a corridor with the right side of the pavement fitting to the existing surface.The subassembly used to link the edge of pavement to the existing ground is LinkSlopeToSurface.
On the corridor created, the feature line (code P2) of the corridor surface (top) starts from the station 0+025, instead of 0+000.
I was wondering why there is no feature line P2 for station range 0+000 to 0+025? Does that mean the linkage to the existing ground surface not exist for the slope defined in the subassembly?
For some reason I cant seem to target an offset alignment layout profile with my corridor lane assembly. I can target the existing the existing groundprofile with the same offset alignment, but the layout profile when targetted does not change the lane in my cross sections. I can do this with civil 3d 2010, but not 2012. I have tried other lane sub-assemblies and it doesn't make a difference.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been researching the options to deal with tessellation of my corridor. I see the option to extract feature lines from the corridor and to maintain a dynamic link.
I've now found a link in the docs for converting tessellated lines to arcs. Can I use this command with a dynamically linked FL? And will it maintain the dynamic link? [URL] ....
Is there any way to do that (workaround method).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI created an assembly using BasicLaneTransition. When I apply it to my corridor I am not getting a feature line at the crown (center) of the road. I have used this subassembly on several other projects and have not had this issue. The only difference I can think of is that the other projects we started in C3D 2009 and this one is in 2012.
How do I get my feature line to show without adding a marked point?

I have created Road 1 and assigned Feature Line Styles in the Feature Lines tab of the Corridor Properties and it looks as I expected.
When I go to Road 2, 3 etc I have to manually assign the Feature Line Styles again, so the question is can these feature line styles be assigned via a code set or something.

I cant seem to target a corridor FL and keep it linked to the corridor. Is this the expected behavior? I would think you should be able to, no? For that matter I would think you should be able to pick the cooridor link directly, no?

Is there a way to be able to choose a desired feature line when extracting from a corridor? For example, when subgrade and finished grade are on top of each other, it seems subgrade is always coming as default for extraction. I'm not getting the option to select the desired point code as usual for some reason. The best way I found is by turning off the subgrade feature line from the corridor properties, which is a bit tedious.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have daylight_cut at say station 100, then sampled every 20m, however it connect from station 100 all the way to 1000 for example. because there is no such code in between. why can't it create seperate features lines? the thing is sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesn't.
see the redline cutting across the corridor? shouldn't be there.
I was looking through the docs and all it says is that this eliminates tessellation. I understand that and that's what I'm looking to do. But the docs don't give any guidance on what these numbers are for.
I'm talking about the three options under the "Smoothing" group - "Horiz Deviation", "Weeding" & "Arc Inclusion" (I'm looking at the 2010 docs as that's all I could find at the moment).
I have grading style set up to create a cut/fill boundary and the same thing for my corridor. I made surfaces from my grading and corridor and no longer need them. I need to keep the cut/fill lines for my design. How can I extract these lines from these objects? I tried keeping the grading/corridor on one layer and lines I wish to use on another so I can turn pieces of the grading off. However, it will not print the cut/fill boundary without printing all the feature lines created from a grading.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI created a simple corridor for a road widening. I want to plot some drawings but I do not want the frequency lines to plot. I have frozen the layers containing these lines. I have also set the layers to not plot in the layer properties manager. The frequency lines still plot. I've obviously missed something. What do I need to do to stop the frequency lines from plotting?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue where I have set through my codes that i do not want to view the frequecy lines in my corridor. It is displaying right but when i go to print all the frequency lines print. the attached images show my screen of what i am looking at and the other is a pdf of what prints.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to snap to some feature lines in my corridor, i.e. Back_Curb, Flowline_Gutter, etc, and I have the drawing containing the corridor I need to snap to as an XREF. I can snap to other objects in the XREF, but not the Corridor Feature Lines themselves. Apparently, after some digging, Autocadd hasn't come up with a solution for this problem, and many others have the same issue. I run C3D 2012, updated.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using the default styles that came with C3D 2011. How can I change the colors of the corridor "frequency" lines. The lines I am referring to are those that are from the last sub assembly to the daylight line. This is prior to making any section views or surfaces. The colors have to be determined somewhere within the corridor styles I think, but I can't find where.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having a random issue with the daylight ties lopes not tieing to the EG surface at all stations in the Corridor Section Editor. Some stations daylight fine. In plan view the daylight lines vary left & right as expected but don't display at all in Section Editor.
Some background info:2012 Civil 3D SP1 / 64 bit / WIN7Simple corridor used1 alignmentSame fg profileSame drefd EG surface (set all targets for daylight LT/RT)Only one assembly applied to entire corridor Attached are 2 captions of the issue I'm having which each have a cut & fill occurrence as well as a caption of the entire align. & corridor. I did try deleting corridor & recreating and even recreated a simpler assembly and still have the daylight issue in same areas of corridor.
So here's an odd one (at least I think it's odd ): I have a drawing that it utilizing feature lines which are projected to the cross sections to display R.O.W., easements, etc. However, every now and then (there doesn't appear to be any similar operation that causes this) the feature lines will change their location, in this case they typically seem to move north and east about 200'. I can't deuplicate the problem...it just seems to happen on its own.
I'm running Civil 3D 2013 with SP 2.
I have created a feature line from a survey which will be the inside shld of my new road design. I have created the feature line using my design elevations but need to add a PI and Elevation at a specific Northing. When I try to edit I can only seem to find the chainage and elevation but I also need to know the northings and eastings so I know where to insert my PI. I would like to just edit the table since I can't seem to figure out how to insert the PI. (I am new to C3D and still learning...) My final product will be a road with 2% crossfall and I intend to use offeset and grading features to accomplish my final design. How I make this edit...
